Re: Shutting down Guantanamo Bay

What are you trying to say? God damnit, some basic writing composition skills would be nice. If you're going to be confrontational with your crazy ideas, cut the vapid, vague, passive agressive •••••••• and say what you mean.

A legendary Al Qaeda explosives expert, whose invention of the “shoe-bomb” endeared him to Usama bin Laden and who may have known about 9/11 in advance, was freed Thursday from Guantanamo Bay, where he became a “highly prolific” source of information for the U.S. government even as his health spiraled.

Tariq Mahmoud Ahmed al Sawah, a 58-year-old Egyptian who once taught bomb-making to Al Qaeda members and created a special floating mine used to target U.S. ships, as well as the footwear explosive used by failed bomber Richard Reid, has been transferred to Bosnia, according to the Obama administration.

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

No: And as for admiration I am sure the man who powders most, parfumes most, embroiders most, and talks most nonsense, is most admired.

Re: Shutting down Guantanamo Bay

I'm not sure but I think Lewis2005 needs to get up to speed. Lewis2016 might see where the clear and present danger really exists here and abroad. I mean it's not like there's a lot of human rights in the Middle East and it seems to me human rights are slowly eroding in this country. The prisoners in Gitmo aren't human or humane they gave up their rights when they turned into aggressive rabid dogs.

Re: Shutting down Guantanamo Bay

Why are you still here? Everyone left in TLR knows everything you post is pure bullsh*t from a leftist troll. You have nothing to add to the conversation.. your actions invalidated every past post and make any further posts irrelevant.

You lack the intellectual honesty required to have an adult conversation... shoo troll.

Re: Shutting down Guantanamo Bay

Club Gitmo survived the SCOAMF despite his best efforts to let all our enemies who were held there return to their trades... terrorism. Roughly 30% of the scum released go right back to killin infidels. I hope the rest rot there.

Re: Shutting down Guantanamo Bay

^^^ Just another of his long list of unfulfilled campaign promises. The batch of lies that got the slimeball elected - twice. That little thing called Afghanistan, Syria/Iraq, Iran's nuke's......fix the economy, transparent administration, etc. etc. etc.

The only recent candidate that exceeds Obama's capacity to lie is John Kerry, and Hillary smokes them both hands down.

Re: Shutting down Guantanamo Bay

Speaking of unkept promises. A certain TLR resident who keeps trying to jinn up controversy in regard to Trump reminded me of someone elses "promise". Anyone else remember when a prior president (who I'm led to believe also happened to be black) claimed shutting down GITMO was "part and parcel to regaining our moral stature in the world"??

Well here we are 8+ years later and club GITMO is still open for business... and perhaps looking to take on more members? I think it's a good idea. As much as I like to hear about terrorist a$$holes getting zapped by drones... we don't collect any live intel that way.

Ole Tic-Toc has not posted in this thread for years... guess it was not that important to him at the end of the day. Anyhoo.. with the new news above prepare for the boilerplate leftist smattering of how keeping GITMO open helps the terrorists and such. I'm led to believe they will hate us moar... it will help them to recruit... or some similar nonsense.

I think many ISIS and Al Qaed terrorists look at Club Gitmo as a vacation spot. It's better than death on the battlefield. I don't believe all of them want to die for Allah or 72 promised virgins...

Re: Shutting down Guantanamo Bay

Defense Secretary Jim Mattis met with troops at the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in a surprise visit Thursday, one of several stops he will make on a holiday tour of military installations.[COLOR=#0F0F0F !important]Mattis, who was accompanied by a single Associated Press reporter, went to Guantanamo only to visit troops there, not to inspect the facilities or discuss detention policy, Pentagon officials said. He is the first secretary of defense to visit the controversial base since Donald Rumsfeld in early 2002, reports the AP.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#0F0F0F !important]After his stop in Guantanamo, Mattis will travel to meet with soldiers, Marines and sailors at Camp Lejeune, N.C.; Ft. Bragg, N.C.; and the Mayport naval base in Jacksonville, Fla., according to defense officials.[/COLOR]Mattis’ visit to Guantanamo comes amid renewed interest in the future of the military prison. After a terrorist attack in New York in October, President Donald Trump suggested he would send the suspect, Sayfullo Saipov, to Guantanamo as an enemy combatant. Saipov remians in federal custody awaiting trial for murder and terrorism charges.

Mattis.. gotta love the guy. Has done an excellent job crushing ISIS. Glad to have him there with NK acting up.
